Chicago Cubs Minor League Wrap: July 16

Starter Trevor Clifton got rocked for eight runs on seven hits in just three innings. Three of those seven hits were home runs and two of them were hit by catcher Will Smith. Smith’s home run in the second inning was a grand slam. Clifton walked four and struck out four. One of the eight runs was unearned.

Carl Edwards Jr. pitched an inning in a rehab assignment. Edwards loaded the bases with one out on two singles and a walk, but he struck out the other three batters he faced in the inning, so no runs were scored.
